    No motor vibration on this one

    Saw this and had to share it. Hope it hasn't been posted yet as I have been away for a spell. Cheesy opening though. http://www.snotr.com/video/18265/MAG-LEV_Audio

    A nice little gift of SiriusXm

    Was at my local Value Village today and came across this Sirius XM unit for $4.99. I have a few of these unit sitting in the closet and thought for that price why not add another one. Hooked it up and it powered on and whats this? An active signal and free Sirius XM. I have no active...

    Take 10 minutes. Tape or turntable? Cool!

    This is really neat, not sure if it can be called a tape machine or turntable. http://www.snotr.com/video/15189/Vintage_Electronics_-_The_Tefifon

    So damn mad and nobody knows anything!!

    Got up this morning and needed to make a call. Went to get the phone and right away this caught my eye. My beloved Polk RTA 11T with water damage! These speakers were in fantastic condition, not a mark and I always take care of them. I checked to see if the ceiling was leaking and its not...

    Why no SX-1150 and 1180?

    I always wondered why Pioneer would start at the model number 450 and work all the way up to the 1050 and then skip 1150 and go right to the 1250. They did the same for the 80 series. Anyone have a theory why Pioneer would choose to do it this way. I was always curious. :scratch2:

    Techs take a look. Ideas? Expensive?

    Whats with all the good movies going 3D only?

    I guess you could say I am venting in this post but I am a little upset. Practically all the action movies now are coming out only in 3D, well at least in my neck of the woods. I really want to see Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes but like all the other action movies its only playing in 3D...

    You paid for the concert so sit and WATCH it!!

    Last night my wife and I attended the Michael Buble concert in Ottawa. It was a fantastic show and this Canadian singer is a comedian as well, gave us more than a few laughs. What I did notice about this show and it grinds my gears (Thanks Family Guy) is the amount of people that attend...

    Nuance. Nuts? Some will say yes, others no

    Well first I shall say sorry for the crappy pic but its night and I need the daylight to light up the living room. I have tried many speakers over the years from JBL to Paradigm to you name it but I never had Nuance. I have read the reviews from people saying don't buy this garbage to its...

    How can we explain that feeling??

    I have a hard time to explain to people that feeling when we find something that we have been looking to find for months and sometimes years. I was on Kijiji last night and saw an ad for an ADC Soundshaper II MKIII. I have been searching for this EQ since I sold mine many moon ago. I saw many...

    A Rare Duck?? Vector Research VR7000

    Picked this up today for $20. Seems damn heavy and built well. Look at that transformer its pretty hefty for only 60WPC. Not to much on the web or here for that matter. What I can figure out is its from the 80s and the company is long gone. Some say its based on NAD stuff. Whatever the case is...

    Pioneer x2x knobs.

    If you need some Pioneer knobs for the x2x series this looks to be a good deal. If your in Canada, He says pickup only but maybe he will ship? No affiliation etc: http://ottawa.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-electronics-Pioneer-Knobs-SX-525-SX-626-SX-727-SX-828-most-receiver-amp-W0QQAdIdZ480356636

    Canton Auction Speakers

    Went to an auction the other night for kicks as I have never been to one. I looked at the audio stuff, a Yamaha AV system with full speaker setup, 2 small Mission and a set of small Canton that looked a lot like the Minimus 7. I decided to bid on the Canton as I had a chance to pick them up and...

    CD player that matches the Basic system?

    I recently purchased a Kenwood Basic M1, C1 and T1, Does anyone know what Cd player matches this system? One that came out in the same year? I have a black Phillips playing now but would love the single disc CD player to match. I do not want a 5 disc changer. I just need a model number so I can...

    Kenwood Basic M1, C1 and T1

    There was an ad in the local Kijiji tonight and all it said was Kenwood 4 piece stereo and speakers, has to go as I am moving and I cant take it with me. No pictures. So I emailed him and asked him for the model numbers so I could look it up. When he came back with the model numbers I did not...

    Rescued Phillips

    I made a donation to a thrift store and while bringing my stuff in I saw this little fellow sitting in the corner. I asked him when he was going to put it on the sheft and he told me it was going to the garbage, he had no way to test it because of the weird connectors and speaker terminals. So...

    JBL L100 Century A bit beat up

    Was at one of those places that buy up unclaimed storage lockers and saw these sitting on the floor in the back. At first I didn't know what they were as all I saw was the raised square pattern on the grills. I took the grills off to see what was under the hood so to speak and realized I had...

    My Clements 800SI have some issues

    I picked up a set of Clements yesterday and only after I got home and tried to hook them up I realized that I might be in some trouble. I went to put the wires to the terminals and noticed that the terminal pad was burnt and bulged out. (Bad sign) (Bad Pic but you can still see damage)...

    Todays Value Village Score, Sony and Advent

    A trip to the local Value Village again has brought me some Karma. I picked up this Sony STR-6800SD. It looked like it was in a barn, but an afternoon of cleaning and spraying all switches and pots resulted in an awesome sounding receiver. The only problem with it was a burnt left light. Its...

    When your times up. Heres a record for ya.

    Thought this was kind of cool, or morbid depending how you look at it, but what a way for vinyl lovers to say good bye. http://www.andvinyly.com/
